EXPORT CONTROL
New Export Controls on EMCCD cameras
In January 2009 the UK Government has brought into effect new export control for EMCCD cameras. This new legislation is part of a world wide agreement called “The Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods and Technologies". This is a multilateral export control regime with 40 participating states, including the USA and Japan.
Raptor currently operates an “Open General Export Licences” (OGEL) that allow us simply to record the destination of these controlled products. Countries covered under the OGEL include all members of the EU, the USA, Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Norway and Switzerland.
For any other countries, an export licence will be required.
